: The center focuses on building quantum processors using superconducting circuits, chosen for their potential to be manufactured repeatably using existing microelectronic fabrication techniques.
In October 2021, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Caltech officially opened the , a two-story, 21,000-square-foot facility located on the Caltech campus in Pasadena, California. This center is the university's first "corporate-partnership building" and serves as a dedicated hub for developing "fault-tolerant" quantum computers—machines capable of correcting their own errors to perform reliable, large-scale computations. Key Focus Areas and Research Goals : The center focuses on building quantum processors
: Research teams are exploring "Schrödinger-cat qubits" and other architectures designed to stabilize fragile quantum information against environmental noise. Key Focus Areas and Research Goals : Research
The hub is led by prominent Caltech faculty who also hold roles at AWS: AWS Quantum Computing Lab : The center focuses on building quantum processors
